Human-induced climate change began earlier than previously thought [barf]

Continents and oceans in the northern hemisphere began to warm with industrial-era fossil fuel emissions nearly 200 years ago, pushing back the origins of human-induced climate change to the mid-19^th century.

The first signs of warming from the rise in greenhouse gases which came hand-in-hand with the Industrial Revolution appear as early as 1830 in the tropical oceans and the Arctic, meaning that climate change witnessed today began about 180 years ago.

Researchers in Australia found evidence for the early onset of warming after trawling through 500 years of data on tree rings, corals and ice cores that together form a natural archive of Earth’s historical temperatures. …

All that black powder smoke from sea battles, revolutions, civil wars. Yeah, that’s it.

ever notice it rained the day or 2 after a big battle. probably because of this, NOT gorebal warning.

MMGW advocacy has become an old standard of tabloid newspapers. Many years ago, they had the theory that the Chinese government was ordering all citizens to stand on chairs, than at a given moment, to jump off, their combined weight knocking the Earth out of its orbit.

Why would they do this? To show the rest of the world they mean business. Or something. Communists are insane.

The mass of the Earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg

5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg

Today, there about 1.3 billion Chinese people. Now assuming that the Chinese gorged themselves so much that they each weighed 220 lbs (100 kg), they would have a grand total weight of

130,000,000,000 kg.

This is 0.000000000000021762421% the mass of the Earth.

Yep, pretty much the math of MMGW in a nutshell.

These jerks will be the first in line when:

The latest cancer treatment is designed by “Evil Big Pharma” and is found to work!

The Latest mobile device (made in evil, pollution-causing factories in China) is introduced.

The latest fashions (hand embroidered by enslaved children in Pakistan) come down the runway.

The next streamlined ultra-light carbon steel(and thus requiring both Eevil MINING and REFINING operations) touring bike is introduced onto the market.

The latest (de facto)all-white, free-style, Montessori, $50,000 a year private school opens up in their neighborhood.

Now, mind you, I have nothing against anyone making a living, but I also do not try and tell others how to live because “Global Warming”!

The most amazing thing about this article is deciding whether these so-called scientists are as stupid as they sound, or whether they just cynically think we are. Just as the earth WARMED after the "Little Ice Age" ended, it COOLED before that. This is what brought on the "Little Ice Age" in the first place.

I think it's simpler than that. They sound like teenagers trying to write the coolest sounding fiction. The more cooler they think their story is the harder they thump their chests.
